CAsKY, KY, Oct. GAS / see you
have no correspondent from this
place, venture to consign TO your
care for publication a few items,
which, if noticed at all, hope will
not detract from the appearance of
your newsy and highly appreciated
paper, and, Mr.. Editor, should you
ever deem it necessary to delay the
publication Of my letter, let me warn
you not 10 hazard the life of your
care by consigning this indigestible
thing TO the waste basket, but sim
ply mail it back to me, l think 1 can
work it off on Deacon Loving as a
cake recipe.
Well as "Old Hennessey," my

time discern the least affinity in our
communications, that fiery ambition,
which has ever been smouldering in
my bosom, will burst into a flame
that will blaze with unmitigated fury |

walls are up now, being 100 feet
high and s feet thick. The temple is
200 by 100 feet and will be built en-
tirely of Utah granite. The middle
tower on each end will DO 200 feet
high and there will be lower towers
on the four corners. II will be fin
ished, ii is calculated, in about six
years more. l next went to see the
former residences of Brigham Young,
where his II wives lived, and also
saw his grave. While walking along
the street CHANGED to fall IN with
Mr.. w. b. Barton, Norman bust
ness man, who took me TO his home
and showed me the system of water
works, by which the city is irrigated
and supplied with hydrants. The
water comes down from the menn-
tains surrounding the city on three
sides and is turned into pipes aud
trenches wherever il is needed. Mr..
Barton's garden is still fresh and
green with tomatoes and other grow
ing vegetables, and his yard was
filed with flowers and vines still
growing and blooming. From
tower on the side of one Of the noun
tains an excellent view of the whole
city was had. Salt Lake City was
founded in lS47 and now contains
10000 inhabitants, $4,000 Of them are
Mormans. The streets are l20 feet
wide, but the city does not present
that thrifty, prosperous appearance
noted in other western towns.
Many of the houses are old and weeds
are allowed TO grow on the streets
aud In some of the yards. The Nor
mans run everything aud there does
not seem to be much enterprise about
them in the way Of building up the
city. / was rather disappointed in
the place, both as to the size and
general appearance. l called on Gov.
West but did not find HIM in. He is
q Kentuckian and l was anxious to
see and talk with him, but as staid
only one day did not have that
pleasure. Leaving in the afternoon,
got fine view of the Great Lake
in returning to Ogden. 1t is 100 by
60 miles and has an island 30 miles
long, upon which there is a consider
able mountain range. The water
contains so much salt that man will
float in it almost like stick OF wood
Bathing is very fine at all seasons Of
the year. The lake is A, 2lS feet above
sea level and the water averages &c
feet in depth. Salt Lake City is moi
on the banks of the lake, but is Is
miles south of it, at the end of the
Great Salt Lake Valley.
From Ogden to Sacramento, which
city 1 reached Monday at 10 o'clock
the distance is 744 miles. The trains
out here make very slow time and il
took about As hours to make the run.
Until we got into California the
country was not materially different
from that already described. But
few places of any importance were
passed and the ride would have been
very dreary and tiresome one If ]
had not fallen in with some very
pleasant travelling companions on the
train. 1 reserve my observations
about the portions of California,

I will leave for Los Angeles this
morning and will reach that place
1872 miles to the south, in Is hours.

Deafness Can't DO Cured

by local applications, as they can not
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only way TO cure Deafness,
and thati is by constitutional rene
dies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucus lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube gets iufiamed, you have a rumb-
ling sounds or imperfect hearing,
and when it Is entirely cloaed Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
1amation can be taken out and this
tube restored TO its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever ;
nine cases out Of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness Caused by
Catarrh) that we can not cure by

John Sherman is the one big man
in the Republican party of Ohio, and
three times has he been
cheated by some mighty small Re.
publicans of that State. In 1876 r.

and four years later ]. A. Garfield
gobbled up what of right was Sher-
mans. In 1884 Foster and Foraker
betrayed Sherman again, and now
they are playing the same game and

not receive social attentions from any

If this example should be followed

ton could be raised, but just such
extravaganza is what has placed

to repair damages caused by diseases
of special organs, there is no remedy

complete and with the many enhancing

by long study of the parts.
The audience OF last night was rather

To avoid conlueion and the danger
that through inadvertence, hurry,
mistake or want Of pen or pencils,
voters may omit to erase printed words
ON the ballot, the council recommend
that the ballots be printed with either the
words, For Division, !" alone on the bal
lot, or the words Against Division
alone on the ballot.
The council especially requests the
committee man in each county. or where
they do not act, the friends OF division
on the day OF the election, to obtain
| correct and authentic returns of the vote
for and against division in their several
| counties. and forward the same with oil
convenient dispatch to the chairman of
the CO mol, Hugh j. Campbell. at Yank-
ton, Uakot1, This Is important.
The council also urgently recommend
to the friends of division in each county,
where it has not already been done, to
form division clubs, and organize q
thorough canvass OF their counties, and
also to see that good men are ct all the
polls on election day with supplies of
ballots, and that an simple supply OF
ballots, be printed in each county.
The ballots, by a provision of the lsw
OF 1881, must be printed or written upon
white paper. No other can be received.
The council take this opportunity to
again earnestly request the people OF
South Dakota upon election day to lay
aside all other business and to turn on,
to the polls en- masse, and vote and work
for division.
Every property interest, every busi'
pess interest, every political interest
every social and moral interest OF ever,
man, woman and child of Dakota will b,
advanced by division and will be injured
by q light or indecisive vote upon tina
question. We cannot too strongly pres
emit this great question to our people
: The people Of the neighboring state wiz
are Our friends and who have . common
interest with us in divisian; q friend
T in congress; the national administration
the press OF the country; the whole rec
pie OF the United States, ere looking !
! ste from the election what the res
wishes OF the people OF Dakota are.
For any voter under these circun
stances TO fail 10 vote. is to deala dead
blow to his " highest interests, ON
